Staff fury over 'rude Andrew's' speeding

THE Duke Of York Prince Andrew faces a royal rollicking from the Queen for acting like a Duke Of Hazzard.

The zippy - and apparently lippy - prince has infuriated staff by SPEEDING through Windsor Great Park in his Aston Martin like a Formula One driver.

The workers are so angry with His Royal Flyness, they are sending Her Maj a PETITION urging her to tick him orf for "racing" around the estate.

Lodge keepers in the 5,000 acre park claim the 49-year-old prince whizzes past them and ignores the 30mph limit.

They also reckon he "acts like a lout" behind the wheel, forcing them to LEAP out of the way as he zooms past.

One gatekeeper said the prince shouts rudely: "You, get out of my way."

Now close sources say that they want the Queen to take action - as Andrew won't listen to anyone else.

A senior source said: "He's behaving like a lout and abusing his position. You wouldn't expect anyone to behave in this fashion, let alone the Queen's son.

He's behaving like a lout. It's not good enough and it's got to stop

"The guys are just doing their job and must be respected for that. They want something done about Andrew so they're drawing up a petition for the Queen to get him to toe the line.

"All they want is for him to slow down."

Prince Andew has a reputation for his love of fast cars. He is often seen at the wheel of his Aston Martin convertible. He also has a �200,000 Bentley Arnage. He ordered his chauffeur to take the 180mph limo - number plate DOY - on its first public spin to Windsor Castle last month. The prince, dubbed Airmiles Andy for his excessive use of jets and choppers, lives at Royal Lodge on the Windsor estate, half a mile from the castle. He regularly has to pass through the gates looked after by the lodge keepers.

A friend added: "The duke enjoys his cars but whenever I have been with him he sticks to the speed limit!"
